A method of monitoring an assembly process is disclosed herein. The method includes obtaining an event model for each of a plurality of objects in the assembly process with the event model for each of the plurality of objects including a predetermined time frame for a change in presence to occur. The method includes collecting an image sequence of the assembly process for monitoring and identifying if a change in presence for each of the plurality of objects occurred with a detector model. The method further includes reviewing the event model for each of the plurality of objects to determine if the predetermined time frame lapsed without the change in presence of a corresponding one of the plurality of objects being identified and issuing an alert if the predetermined time frame lapsed without the presence of a corresponding one of the plurality of objects being identified.

Method and system for process monitoring

Method and apparatus for securing a duct to a bracket or hanger using a duct saddle. The duct saddle includes a body that includes a first side and a second opposing side. The body includes a duct seating surface on the a first side. The duct saddle also includes a plurality of retention clips extending from the body. The retention clips include respective tabs extending over the second side of the body and spaced apart from the second side of the body. The tabs include respective retention surfaces facing the second side of the body. The duct saddle also includes retention bodies extending from the respective retention surfaces toward the second side of the body. The above-described duct saddles can be installed on brackets without the use of fasteners, such as bolts and nuts.
